Trip Summary
I had a wonderful group today that wanted to go to the Tower unfortunately with the wind that was blowing would make it very bad for trying to be around the tower so I changed them to take them to another place that they could catch an amberjack. It was a sloppy 19 mile an hour southwestern that was blowing with lots of waves little rough getting down to where we were going. Once we got close I turned off the beach and headed out before I know it everybody was feeling rough. We got out to where the amberjack were that I caught last week and unfortunately we could not catch anything but sea bass. We left there on the troll and caught a king mackerel but we missed two mahi and a sailfish all in all we stayed an extra hour trying to catch more fish cuz I felt sorry for such a great group of guys and had a easy ride back going with the waves.
